First off, what are your conditions?? Are you using an incubator?? What temps are the jars being held at?? What did you use to inoculate the jars?? Multispore injection ( just spores & water ) or a liquid injection ( prepared karo/spore mycellium.. or shroom' water)?????? What kind of shroom is it?

z strain cubies. multispore syringe incoculated to rye/wbs that was soaked 30 hours simmered and pced for 90 min. jars are being incubated at 82 to 86F. It's been 8 days now. this is my first time growing this strain. I also have 2 jars of just wbs soaked 30 hours and pc'ed. No growth in those either. I've had problems with overly wet jars b4 but they have always shown signs of growth quicker than this. this time i didnt simmer quite as long and i have no growth. I'm assuming the grain is too dry. Perhaps i'm just impatient.

Sounds like you're just being impatient. I've had a couple jars that took longer than that to show signs of mycelium. You should probably see some growth in those jars within the next 3-4 days if not sooner, but if you don't I'd still wait a couple days longer to see if some growth shows up... GL bro
